Iraqi Nujaba Fighters to Uproot Terrorists in Syria

“We were the first group (of popular forces) to have arrived in Syria to fight terrorists and we will stay there until the last terrorist leaves the country,” Seyed Hashem al-Moussavi said in his statement.

He reiterated that the Iraqi popular forces fight against the terrorist groups for humanitarian reasons, and said, “The reason for our presence in Syria is only to fight terrorism.”

His words came as Syrian soldiers, the Lebanese Hezbollah fighters and the Iraqi al-Nujaba Movement are about to carry out a joint operation on the Southern outskirts of Aleppo city to liberate the districts of Rashedeen 4 and 5 and then rush to Khan Touman to free the town from Jeish Al-Fatah coalition of terrorist groups.
